1ST WINGHAM TROOP
Gary Brenzil broke the flag
during opening ceremonies last
Wednesday night. Scouter Bob
McIntyre inspected the Scouts
and dues were collected.
The troop then left for
Western Foundry Co. Ltd.,
where the foreman, Lee Grove,
took the boys on a tour of the
plant.
They saw the blast furnace
which is fired by coke, Pig
iron and scrap metal are put
into the cupola and melted into
cast iron. Mr. Grove showed
the large ladles used for carry-
ing the hot metal to the moulds
and the castings that are mould-
ed for various parts of furnaces
and stoves.
In the machine section they
saw the grinding, sanding and
drilling operations, which must
be done before assembly.
The Scouts had a very inter-
esting trip and hope to visit
the Foundry at some future date,
to see the moulding operation.

Expected That
Mill Rate Will
Remain Same
GODERICH—Huron County
Council assesmbles Thursday
forenoon, for a one -day session
at which all committees will
report. These have been re-
duced from 12 to nine, and a
number of matters which claim-
ed attention at the March ses-
sion last year are out of the way.
Recommended appointment
of E.C. Fisher, mayor of God-
erich, as emergency measures
co-ordinator for the county,
will be dealt with. Mr. Fisher,
if his appointment is confirmed,
will outline his program at the
June session.
Most important business on
Thursday will be adoption of
the budget. The mill rate of
14 — six general, eight for
roads -- is likely to be the same,
it was learned at the county
building,
President E. G. Hall, of the
University of Western Ontario,
made a plea at the January ses-
sion for assistance in the finan-
cial campaign now under way,
but indications are for only the
usual grant of $2, 500 for bur-
saries.
Flu has not laid low any of
the county councillors, so far
as Clerk -treasurer John Berry
has heard.
An optimist is a husband
who keeps the motor running
while waiting for his wife.

Driving Lessons
For 16th Birthday
Valuable Gift
A sixteenth birthday isquite
a landmark for any boy or girl.
The Ontario Safety League sug-
gests a birthday present that has
far greater value than might ap-
pear on the surface — a course
of driving instruction by areput-
able commercial instructor.
The League also recom-
mends that the lessons should be
extended well past the point
where the student has learned
enough to pass his licence ex-
amination. Parents should not
teach their children how to
drive — they are rarely quali-
fied.
The best way to learn to
drive is through high school
driver education, or the com-
parable course given by Pro
Drivers Clubs. But if these are
not available, competent pro-
fessional instruction is the next
best thing.
It costs money, but probably
saves far more than it costs, in
accidents avoided. It may also
avoid serious injury, or even
death, for some human being.

President of
History Club
By Rosalyn Murray
A young man from Bluevale
is the president of the history
Club at The University of West-
ern Ontario this year.
The Clio Club, named for
the Greek Muse of History, is a
natural interest for Ian Mundell,
of R, R. 1, Bluevale, since he
is a fourth year student in
Honors History. He grew up on
his father's farm and attended
Wingham District High School.
This spring he will graduate
from Western and hopes to eater
the Canadian Foreign Service.
Students of history benefit
from the program which the
Clio Club offers. Speakers,
debates, panel discussions and
forums help them to broaden
their knowledge through con-
tact with experts in many fields
In the past year the members
have heard speeches on such
diverse topics as the history of
forests in Canada, archeology
as a career, the effect of the
French revolution on Russia,
the development of religious
music and religious philoso-
phies which have affected his-
tory.
The speeches usually spark
discussions during the coffee
time after the meeting and
this exchange of opinions helps
the students with their studies.
It also fosters an "esprit de
corps" among students of his-
tory.
The meetings and social
events of the year, especially
the annual banquet, are ideal
places for students and profes-
sors to meet outside the formal
atmosphere of the classroom.
This liaison between staff and
students is probably the most
valuable result of the club's
activities, since it provides a
time for individual discussion
of problems and increases the
harmony in the classroom.
